As the other Guy asked, have you used a pressure washer?
That is a common way to pooch bearings--------also seen water pushed into the oil filler ( guy thought he might have a bad head gasket like on a liquid cooled motor- some are "Riders" some are "Cleaners") and water pushed into the wiring harness.
My TC is too new to tell, but the Evos both have over 75,000 on the factory wheel bearings, which are not sealed on the Evos- grease them every 10,000 or so.
